Abstract:
A brake rotor providing reduced brake pad radial taper wear by providing brake rotor friction surface indent patterns. For example, the indent patterns are the form of radial-biased grooves or linearly arranged cross-drill hole sets, patterned in a configuration that balances brake pad wear, thereby reducing brake pad radial taper wear in a manner tuned specifically for a given type of brake caliper and brake pad material, wherein the reduction in brake pad radial taper wear is accomplished with virtually no penalty to brake pad life.
